Join us for an exceptional closing episode of Women's History Month, with Dr. Anna Malaika Tubbs, who spent three years studying three mothers-- mothers of Martin Luther King, Jr., Malcolm X and James Baldwin.

Throughout this conversation, we explore Anna's advocacy for women of color, her insights into the unique challenges they face, and the impact of her global upbringing on her work. As we conclude our celebration of Women's History Month, Anna's narrative is a testament to the strength, resilience, and significance of women's stories in crafting a more inclusive and understanding world.

This finale is not just a look back at the incredible women we've highlighted throughout the month but also a forward-looking perspective on how we can all contribute to a more equitable society. Anna's accomplishments and perspectives remind us of the ongoing journey towards equality and the crucial role of education, understanding, and advocacy in this process.

This Women’s History Month let's vibe with Dr. Erika Eitland, a total game-changer in making our spaces healthier and our world cooler. As the boss at the Human Experience Lab of Perkins & Will (yep, that's the giant architect firm we're talking about), she's smashing ceilings as the first public health scientist calling the shots in architecture.

Dr. Erika isn't just about blueprints; she's all in on making schools, homes, and cities better for our health and the planet. From schooling the bigwigs at The World Bank and the EPA on her groundbreaking research to pushing for a blend of health vibes and economic gains in environmental talks, she’s out here shaping a future where everyone wins.

Look into her vision of a “perfect world” for affordable living and urban spaces. Plus, catch her spill on what makes a building truly healthy. Let's get inspired by Dr. Eitland this Women's History Month and see how Gen Z can lead the charge in building a better tomorrow.

In this enlightening episode of "The Idea People," we sit down with the trailblazing representative of California's 42nd Congressional District, covering Long Beach and Southeast Los Angeles. Elected in November 2022, Robert Garcia brings a wealth of experience and a unique perspective to the political landscape, holding a master’s degree from USC and a Doctorate in Education from Cal State Long Beach.

As a child immigrant from Peru, who rose to become a US citizen, his journey is nothing short of inspirational. Notably serving two terms as Mayor of Long Beach, they launched pioneering programs like tuition-free college and became the first openly LGBTQ, foreign-born member of Congress.

In our conversation, we delve into the critical importance of getting out the vote, focusing on educating young people about their civic duty and the power of their vote, regardless of the state's political leaning.

We also get personal, talking about Robert Garcia's love for comic books and whether this passion extends to the Marvel and DC cinematic universes.

Join us for an episode that bridges the gap between personal passions and political action, shedding light on the power of resilience, representation, and the importance of every single vote.
